Women's History Month: My Favourite Female Ancestor

I encourage readers to join in. Lisa has some terrific blogging prompts for each day of Women's History Month. Meanwhile,
because there are 5 Fridays in March, here are my 5 Blogging Prompts
for Women's History Month. I will write my own stories each Friday (and
participate in as many of Lisa's 31 Prompts as I can!) I hope you'll
join in with your own.

Here is my first Friday post for Women's History Month:

1.
Choose your favourite female ancestor and write a brief biography of
her life. Add it as a short comment here or as a blog post on your own
blog. Add a photo if you have one.

I'm an incurable collector of
antiques, an avid genealogist and a messy but creative cook! I blog, i write history and genealogy books. My main genealogy website is Olive Tree Genealogy http://olivetreegenealogy.com/
